About this project
This project aimed to secure habitat connectivity through the protection and enhancement of paddock trees in the Kyeamba and Tarcutta Valleys.
We provided support and education to landholders to help identify key sites for paddock tree protection or restoration. We provided financial assistance to landholders to implement these works, including fencing and planting costs.
The project was run through a partnership between Murrumbidgee Landcare Inc, Kyeamba Valley Landcare Group and Tarcutta Valley Landcare Group, with funding from the NSW Environmental Trust.
